Life - A veiled mystery

Yes I give up
I can never understand life

The pages are closed by the waves of thunder
But the stories remained keeping me ponder

Did I ever surrender?

Probably that’s life
Its nature so weird and wild

Years passed,
But no matter how much I glanced
It looked like a ruin whose directions are lost

Dragged again into the whirlpool of thoughts
I am petrified what will come across

Sands of time left me bewildered
With these passing years I still wonder

Did I ever surrender?

Hide and seek with life continues till the end
But the secret remains veiled
Captivating me in the life’s cage

From ashes we came, to ashes we will go
Impressions of life’s tapestry will diminish in the flow

From beginning till end
I will thrive to understand-The Clandestine Life
With chapters so deeply attached
Yet unconquered by a mere soul

Imbibed in me are the scars of the time
I relive the memories in every blink of mine

Imprisoned in this vicious loop
I ask myself anew
Did I ever surrender?

I think of you

 

When the stars come out to twinkle 
When the wind rustles across the trees
When the moonlight dwells through the room
I think of you.

When the sun rays commence the morning 
When the birds chirp and flutter through the sky
When the leaves of the trees sway through the air
I think of you.

When the twilight illuminates the shadows
When the fireflies’ jewel in the night         
When the fairies dance on the tiptoes             
l think of you.

When the darkest hour of the night falls
When the world is hushed and silent         
When the dreamland beckons the untamed hearts         
I think of you

Every day
Every hour
Every moment
I think of you through miles and love you.

Is there really any light at the end of the tunnel?

It seems to be a vicious tangled loop. 

Every day we hear news of several people losing the battle of their lives to the beast named Covid.

Can anyone be really prepared to face this kind of death and make peace with it?

We as human beings work all our lives to realize our dreams, seek happiness in little moments, try to adapt to whatever situation we are bestowed with, even if it comes to facing this apocalypse and then suddenly you or your loved ones succumb to this catastrophe. You are then left to live an ordeal realizing how incapacitated you are as a human being. People are choking to death. Funeral, the concluding chapter of one's life has umpteen importance as it's believed that it releases the soul from the body and takes the deceased towards the path where he or she can either attain moksha or leads to a new life leaving behind already possessed one. It gives your heart piercing pain when you struggle to even give a peaceful adieu to your loved ones. We say rest in peace to the departed soul. Really can that soul rest in peace which capitulated to this havoc virus or to the failure of our own infrastructure, The basics? Can the soul of a father who left his little kids rest in peace, can soul of a lady who was expecting to bring a new life on earth rest to peace, can the soul of anyone who leaves his family to shreds rest in peace?

It's high time we stop romanticizing the thoughts of keep hope, stay strong, things will improve and start acting sane. 

We heard in our childhood "Prevention is better than cure". We need to practice it in every sense now by acting sensibly and taking all precautions as this seems to be the only "probable" way to stay safe and survive this fight.

Remember no one is too far from being too late.

Beautiful people

At times we meet certain people in life whom we get attached to without any significant reasons.
Day looks more beautiful when it has sprinkles of their presence.Life looks more  colorful with their being around.
But it wont be true to say that it happens because of no reasons.The reasons are there but probably unknown to our heart.Probably a nice soul can touch anybody's heart but who gets impacted is at God's discretion.

Not every relationship needs to have a reason or purpose, some are just naive like the smile of a toddler.
